The Hapmudo team races to the finish line. The group staged a martial arts performance after the race.

This was the first time the bed race was held at Magill’s. In
past years, it’s been at the Kmart parking lot and John Marr Drive. Sears Holding Corp., the owner of Kmart, no longer allows community
events on its properties.

Teams from TD Bank, Silverado, and the Parliaments.

Teams from the Fairfax County Police Department and Mason Supervisor Penny Gross/Trust Properties.
